The Richmond Dispatch has come
out sqnarely in favor of an ex.
ira session Of the legislature, and
expresses the opinion that the Re-
publicans are opposed to an extra
session because it will enable the
Democratic party to place the debt
question in a more favorable con-
dition. The Dispatch seems to
think that this is the only reason
why the Republicans oppose the
extra session. If this was our only
reason for opposing the extra SEES
sion, we would hope most earnestly
for having it called. Instead of
strengthening the Democracy in
Virginia, another session of the
legislature will only add to its I'M
popularity and contribute to its
certain overthrow ia the future
Let the extra session be called by
Governor Lee, and the Democracy
will receive it's just reward for its
utter incapability.
AS citizen Of Virginia we are
opposed to seeing the revenues Of
the state squandered in useless
and incompetent legislation. This
is why we are opposed to an extra
session. The calling Of the legis-
lature together again will cost the
state over ifty-thousand dollars
Who thinks such an expenditure
will be wise i-PatriOt and Herald.

A WARMING.

The Petersburg Hder.APpcdt ut
ters the following warning to the
democratic party, Of which it is one
of the ablest supporters in the
state. We doubt whether it will
be needed. There are too many
small politicians in control of that
organization, and too many badly
equipped officers in the service Of
the state government to expect any
well defined and cOmprehe ssive
views Of the right policy to pursue.
Our Petersburg contemporary says:
"But we say IN all sincerity, and
with sOlemnity,-.the democratic
party must settle the debt or must
relinquish the responsibility Of
government to some organization
that will. The people are weary Of
triaing and tinkering, Of profes.
sions without practice, OF promises
without performance. The taXp1y-
ers. as "a body, are undoubtedly
patriotic and wish to do their duty
TO the commonwealth. Bat when
they see their sacrifice OF personal
interests leading to no publc good,
the time must come, nay, has come,
when they will face the issue, know
the worst, and meet the situation
for themselves. The situation is
too grave to he net by the shadows
of sentiment, or the ghosts Of parti-
IAN prejudice Something must be
done. DeclamatiOn and democracy
will not fiji the bill there must be
something more, and that some
thing is 10 settle the debt. Not to
try to settle it, not to experiment
with il. not to deal in rifS' and
"bnts," explanations aud prophe'
cies. but to devise some plan that
shall bring in the bonds, place the
public obligations upon sure anu
equitable foundation, and relegate
the matter neither to "the courts
nor TO the annual ballot box, but
90 the auditor and treasurer at
semi-apnual eriods to pay an ac'
cepted interest On an honest debt.
50 only can Virginia W al peace,
and be free to march forward to
the great future OF production and
Industry which are naturally hers
/ That end We all desire ; the means
may be debatabIe, but if an extra
session of the general assembly be
| held, that end only will account ia
the Y0ters for the expense and other
evils sure 20 attend upon such SEES
sions. We utter thls word in sea
sou. Success IN the direction point
ed out will mean a political mil
! Ieuigm. Failure will ensure d
change of representation in the leg
islature aud the downfall OF dem
ocratic supremacy in virginia.

Revival In MartInsNuTg.

MARTINsBURG, w. VA, Jan. H.
Not for years has there been such
religious revival in this city as Is
going on at present. The move
ment has been directed against the
saloons, the Ministerial Association
having resolved to unite in one
grand effort to counteract the
effects of liquor selling. All last
week the meetings, which we're
held in the various churches, were
largely attended. The audiences
grew so large that the ministers
finally rented the rink. Sunday
night at least 1000 peraons were IN
attendance upon the services, aud
numerous persons we're converted
or stood up for prayer. Rev. f. T.
Robertson, of the Baptist Church.
preached a powerful sermon on
"Jesus Wept." The whole town IL
stirred up.

ANY doubt that such a course

must be shaken by a cOntempla-
ton of what has already been done
in that direction. The act provides

reciting an intention to uphold the
Riddleberger act against the hold

enacts that the Second Auditor
shall open an account in his office,

count. in which shall be entered the
number, amount, and date OF each

ascertain what amount OF each OF

clipped had been funded under that

The DEADLY CAR SI0YE.

One or two recent railroad acct
dents IN which loss of life was
caused by burning passenger coach
es have directed attention anew to
the question of heating railway
cars. There is nothing new in the
question. Almost every time, in
the cold season, that coach is
overturned or wrecked in an acct
dent it is set on fire by the Goals
from a stove at either end, and
passengers who are not able to get
out, but who are not always serious
" injured, are burned to heath. 1t
is next to impossible to save from
destruction by fire car with hot
stoves in it which has been much
wrecked. Death which comes in
this way to many persons IS horrl-
BILE enough, and the consideration
of the question is of great impor.
lance.
1t is the natural thing to put all
the blame on the railroad cOmpa-
MES. 1t is easy enough to suppose
that IN this day, when invention
has overcome so many difficulties,
apparently of much more conse-
quence than this, the comparative.
ly simple problem of safely and
effectively heating railway cars
should have been solved. Bat it
has not been, and the old system
of stoves, which has been about
the only means of heating cars
since cars came into use, Is still
maintained. The almost constant
opening of the doors at either end
and the general exposure OF the
car mako it necessary that a great
err degree of heat should be main.
tanned than In ordinary rooms, so
that the car stove is generally fired
TO its utmost aud ready for its
deadly work.
That the car stove will have to
20 sooner or later is undOubted.--
The railroad companies are proba-
bly, as anxious as the general public
that some safer means shall he pro-
vided. They claim however, that
while many persons have devices
of one sort and another, all Of
which are patiently examined when
offered, not one has get been shown
to be what is wanted, and most of
them are utterly impracticable. \
method of steam heating from the
locomotive, such as is in use on the
elevated roads in New York, has
been often suggested, but railroad
experts say it is impossible in that
way to supply heat to long trains
of cars which may he compelled to
remain a considerable time without
locomotive attached. Pie con.
slant switching and making up OF
trajus would put it ont Of the
question,
And so the question remains
open. There is a great field here
for practical genius and invention.
Anything which will be an I'M.
provement on the present method
and overcome the existing dangers
will be certain to command the
prompt attention Of the railway
people. They are as anxious as
any for a change and would be
clad to be shown how they can
make it.-Pkilddelpkiq Press

Colonel May intends to resume his
speech in the morning.
HISTORY OF THE CASE.
Two or three months since a hO-
tel, kept by r. A. Miller, at Poca-
hontas, Va, was destroyed by fire.
Two Of the guests lost their lives in
the fire. The house was insured,
and soon rumOrs were abroad that
he and his son had set it on fire in
order to get the insurance. A few
weeks afterwards the elder Miller
was Indicted for arson at Chris
tiansburg, where he had formerly
lived and was well known. The
charge seemed so prepOsterOus
and improbable that its prosecu'
ton was quickly abandoned. Sub
seQuently the two Millers were
again indicted on the same charge
in the County Court Of Tazewel
county, in which Pocahontas IS sit
uated, aud the trial is now in pro
gress, the defense being conducted
by Col. y. j. May, as above re

The pulpit discussion on the
hanging of Cluverius was opened
last Sunday in Baltimore by Rev.
Mr.. Pullman, which we publish in
another column, who took the
ground that the death penalty
should never be inflicted, and that
in this case, as conviction resulted
from circumstantial evidence, there
were special reasons why the man
should never have been executed.
This is a wide field for discussion,
and in this case much has been
written and said. One portion OF
the people are firmly convinced
that the man was a murderer, the
other portion Just as firmly assert
that Miss Madison committed sui.
eide. But, here, a carefully-select-
ed jury, unprecedented and wellfitted
to Judge of the evidence, after a
careful trial, pronounced Cluv&us
guilty Of murder; the higher court
of Virginia could find no reason tC
reverse the finding, and even the
Governor of the state, after a most
careful study of the case, tailed to
find any cause for the exercise Of
his authority. That Cluverius
buried with him any facts about
the girls death is but a surmise,
aud it is more than probable that
if he knew that her death was by
suicide, he would have revealed all
the facts long before he went to
the gallows. In spite of the argu-
ments from the pulpit and from
other sources, the majority Of peo-
pie will remain convinced that
Cluverius was a murderer, and that
death was the only fitting penalty
for bis crime.
